Three attractions?

Awesome Planet is the third. It didnt look busy the other day but there was a CM standing outside of the doorway so I am assuming....Marie

I went through the Spine at Epcot the other day. It's a no from me. I thought it was very boring, confusing, etc. I stopped to watch the attraction Forces of Nature and found it incredibly boring. I did catch the new Encanto show, which is very cute for the kids. That is a nice option. The hit for me was La Calle, the Latin band who comes on that same stage area later in the day. They were incredible!!! The female vocalist has a beautiful voice and the band and the other girl who was leading the audience in dancing, really had everyone up and getting into it. I did take a picture with the Walt statue but on the whole, the area needs a lot more color, some shade would be awesome and just more life in it. Marie

Generic, cold and modern with no whimsy or magic. The basic design ethos from WDI for the last decade.

Ohhh the movie..... I always forget about that....as do most people evidently...I saw it last time I was there... Me and 6 other people... It is a good film....but when your subject ammter is literally "The Earth" I think they could do a lot better for an attraction...Maybe add a Journey To The Center Of The Earth type attraction that is not about a lava Monster but has a little edutainment factor and a little thrill... Redesign the interior to look like it is all organic... Sequoia Rtrees adlding up the roof, The interir ramps descending through earth strata... Rocks and waterfalls and the main lower level looking like a forest floor...which would feature the same Land boat ride, The entrance to Soarin, and the QS Court with the entrance to the new attraction where the movie theater currently sits... or maybe even an exterior entrance to help with the crowd management in the pavilion...

You have good points but I simply do not trust the current leadership to do it correctly.

What? You don't think the people who gave us the amazingly brilliant Communicore Hall can deliver?

Have we heard whether the Monsters Coaster is replacing Journey of Water or Connections?

It’s replacing the Boardwalk bakery place…….. they realised the Doors Coaster could open sooner.

I do think whenever Disney wants to do something with SWGE, muppets is back in trouble.

I concur. Marie

I concur. Marie

Thats kinda why i think we may sadly have to think of how to keep muppets at wdw beyond MV3D. They’re gonna wanna expand galaxies edge eventually.

I do wonder what is seen as the “next” expansion plot after Animation Courtyard.

See, I think The Land desperately needs an overhaul to the whole pavilion... The Land pavilion looks like a failed Mall that is now being used for corporate training. It needs it's whimsical heart restored... Soarin' is great... but the overall interior really doesn't feel like the Pavilion is about The Land... and I think it should... Having a food court is nice, but it could and should all look more interesting....It should all feel like it is made of "The Land "rather than Monsanto...lol The boat ride should have it's music restored.... It needs one more attraction.... It could be so much more than just a food court and Queue for Soarin'....

Do you like Zootopia?

Do you like Zootopia?

That sentence is enough to strike fear into the hearts of any DAK or Epcot fan

I do wonder what is seen as the “next” expansion plot after Animation Courtyard.

Assuming that they are doing this "right" (and there are indications they are vacating the old Animation Bldg office space with plans to remove it), the "next" expansion space should be right next to Monsters In as the backspace space beyond Animation courtyard is huge and has plenty of room for multiple lands - plus it needs to be connected to the RNR area.

After they fully develop that large footprint that is currently backstage? I'd personally suggesting replacing the IJ stunt show and build into the parking lot a bit for more space. Or alternatively removing the BatB theater and using the adjacent expansion pad for a (smallish) land.

Also, there is an expansion pad in Galaxy's Edge plus space there already set up for a table service restaurant.

I am one of those who is firmly against Zootopia in DAK (but alas...) but I don't really understand the general negative feelings towards the property on these boards. It was a great move and even has had some solid follow up stuff (shorts on D+) plus has a second film coming out. I'd love to see the property brought to WDW... in the right place and in the right manner. Putting it in DHS is the right location, though I'd want to see something more expansive than just the ride in Shanghai. DHS would need a land with 3 attractions IMHO.

Indy?

I do wonder if they use the theatre space only, or eat into the backstage area and/or backlot express.
